Why We're Walking

  • 1 in 9 seniors over 65

      are living with Alzheimer's and more than 14 million people care for someone living with Alzheimer's every day.

  • Everyone knows someone

    living with Alzheimer's. It could be your parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, neighbor, or friend who needs AFA's services next.
  • More than 6 million

    Americans are living with Alzheimer’s, a number which is projected to more than double by 2060.
Raise funds toward your goal!

* Every person who raises $100 will get a t-shirt, while supplies last.

* Raise $200, and you will receive a walk-branded, environmentally friendly stainless steel water bottle, while supplies last.

 

Raising $100 is easier than you think. Read below for some tips!

 

 

Who will you walk for?

 

 

How to Get Involved:

Step 1 - Create or join a team!

Step 2 - Raise Funds Towards Your Goal

Step 2 - Raise Funds Towards Your Goal

  • 1. Share Your Story

    Are you caring for someone with Alzheimer's or dementia? Are you walking in memory of someone?

     

    Create a page sharing why you walk and watch how much impact you can make when you tell your story and break the stigma.

  • 2. Ask 5 Friends

    Invite 5 friends to support you at $20 each to reach your goal.  Don't count anybody out! You might be surprised who donates, and every dollar counts. 

     

    Visit your page, click on Tell A Friend and send to your friends.  Or send to yourself and then forward to all your contacts!

  • 3. Donate

    Donate to your own page.  Make the first move and show you care!

     

    People are more likely to give when they see you believe in your cause.
